Great for Vanderbilt for saying enough to the political correctness and BS surrounding the stunt that took place

I’m pretty sure most of their team has been boycotting football all season, judging from their performance so far. Who cares if a bunch of subpar players are upset a girl made their team? Maybe they should recruit better players then they wouldn’t need to recruit the girls soccer team...

But as usual, you PC people totally miss the point as to why we're calling this whole act ridiculous. It's not that we don't respect women; we do. It's not that we don't celebrate women's successes; we do.
The reason we believe this is so ridiculous is because this whole act should be an insult to real "groundbreaking" women.
She kicked a football for about 30 yards and gets co-player of the week?
She plays power 5 football for 30 minutes and this gives her the right to lecture others who have played the sport all their lives?
Really????

Y’all think I’m some “pc” person? That must be the reason for the TD’s.
I’m just saying Vandy sucks. If they don’t want a girl on their team they should play better. If the coaches thought anyone on the team could do better they wouldn’t have to recruit players from the girls soccer team...it’s not the girls fault that Vandy has a crap program with, apparently, no decent kickers.

To be fair, I am not sure that’s true.

As I understand it the only kick she made all game was a squib kick to open the second half. That does not sound like they thought she had any foot at all, or I’m sure they would have let her boot it. And if she kicked and immediately ran to the sidelines I’m not sure what they would have done if they had a 30 yard FG attempt with players trying to block it.
I will bet that there are guys on the team that can kick...at least to that level. It’s just as likely that they were going for the publicity as it was that they didn’t have anyone who could kick a ball.

In a normal world, wouldn't you put in the punter if you ran out of placekickers? I know it's two different kicking styles, but i would think many of those guys would have pulled double duty in high school.

Vandy players began the boycott several years ago. Their administration apparently has no desire to put a competitive team on the field . Them and South Carolina would be better off to join the WAC, they might could compete because they now are the bottom dwellers for the Sec. guaranteed wins for whoever they play

I admittedly did no research and took you at your word bulldog. I can’t find this story anywhere but who knows what the truth is nowadays as far as media goes. I wouldn’t blame the players for boycotting however if what bulldog said is true.

There was just a story about it on Game Day. The Vandy players looked like they supported her. I'm not sure where this story about boycotting came from. By the way, for those of you who said it was a terrible kick, she said that she was asked to kick it to that spot. The announcer said the same thing that day. I hope we can leave this story alone. We have a big game tonight and have more things to be concerned about.

They are just like FSU, don't want to lose again. However, the way UGA has played in the last month, it may be close.

Right, because they clearly would have no other reason to boycott like their coach getting fired or COVID or anything.

Hey if a Coach can play their less than talented son in a football game then I don't see a problem with letting a girl play.
